CBS also reporting (apparently along with the absurdity of the recount; Stein doesn't have to pay for all of it the counties do!):
..."Michigan Secretary of State Ruth Johnson said in a statement Wednesday that
it is “unusual” for a candidate that received such a small share of the vote -- Stein got just 1 percent in Michigan -- to request a recount, “especially when there is no evidence of hacking or fraud, or even a credible allegation of any tampering.”...
...In Michigan, the cost of a recount is $125 per precinct. There are 6,300 precincts across the state, meaning a statewide recount would cost $787,500.
State election officials have suggested the real cost of the recount could be higher --
more like $900,000 -- but that additional cost would be the responsibility of the counties, not Stein’s campaign....
